Enable Weapons in Cruise?

Use engine kill

Not sure if I should post the hack here… but as noone had anything bout the mine hack here’s the gun hack (untested):

Common.dll

00037813: B0 00 90 90 90 [E8 48 9F 01 00]

I agree for there is no need to make them accessible while in cruise.

I use engine kill all the time and it works great when chasing your enemy once you get within range to fire your weapons or, to launch CD’s/missiles/torpedoes.

I also agree with Gibbon. If you want a speedy battle then double the Thruster’s speed.

Yes I know I’m gravedigging a 3-month old topic but it’s in line with what I’m looking for and I know I’d get flamed for posting a new topic with the same subject.

I’m hoping someone knows a way to enable all weapons while in cruise (guns, turrets, mines, countermeasures, torpedoes) since this follows along with some other cruise modifications I’m researching. No, this is not a cheat, but rather this is going to be a feature of cruise once I shift cruise from being an engine function to a reactor/powerplant function (this is through modifications of the existing cruise rather than developing a whole new cruising system).

And yes, I know the gun hack is posted above in this thread, but also looking for other weapons.

The link in the first post does it for mines; the gun hack above also includes turrets, torpedoes & missiles; countermeasures work already. So a bouquet for not starting a new topic; a brickbat for not realising you already have what you want.

doesn’t work for me, in my common.dll, there is nothing like this offset

Are you using 1.1? (1.0 has 24 08 D9 41 1C) The bytes between the brackets are the original, replaced with the bytes after the offset.

Yes, i have 1.1
this what i have a this offset :
20 3B C5 B9 08

and when i make a search, this is no E8 48 9F 01 00 and no B0 00 90 90 90 and no 24 08 D9 41 1C values in my common.dll

my common.dll is in attachement. Maybe i don’t know how find and replace it, it’s strange o_O

You say you have 1.1, but the attachment is 1.0. Everything is in hex, not decimal.

F:\downloads\temp>xd +37813 =5 Common.dll
0093b5  20 3b c5 b9 08

F:\downloads\temp>xd +0x37813 =5 Common.dll
037813  24 08 d9 41 1c

E:\Games\Freelancer\EXE>xd +0x37813 =5 Common.dll
037813  e8 48 9f 01 00

ummm, strange, i have applied the 1.1 patch o_O

So i will applied it again, and test it again.

Thanks for having spend time with me.

I think i will install it again cause vista may not replace the old file with the 1.1 files due to the admin rights
